Gas Chromatography Market Outlook:
Gas Chromatography Market size was over USD 3.99 billion in 2025 and is anticipated to cross USD 7.35 billion by 2035, growing at more than 6.3% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2026-2035. In the year 2026, the industry size of gas chromatography is assessed at USD 4.22 billion.
The rising production of petrochemicals and advanced medicines impels the growth in the market. According to the International Energy Agency, the oil and gas consumption in the worldwide petroleum industry is expected to increase by 10 million barrels per day and 850.0 billion cubic meters by 2030, respectively. Gas chromatography (GC) plays a crucial role in separating method and identifying & measuring the primary chemical elements present in fuel samples to ensure quality in this merchandise. In addition, it helps the pharmaceutical industry to attain quality control and regulatory compliance during drug development. Thus, these factors conjugately inflates demand in this sector.
In this regard, a 2023 NLM study discussed the cost-efficiency of 2D GC in drug discovery and analysis, where the average cost of the complete process of launching a single drug ranged between USD 1.0 billion and 2.0 billion. It further mentioned this method’s potential in offering several financial advantages for producing personalized medicines by providing precise and accurate mass measurement and molecule detection. Further, rigorous exploration is required to bring more affordability in the market, helping companies present a competitive payers’ pricing for their products. In November 2021, the American Chemical Society released a publication on the development of a low-cost and versatile GC system, which is built with materials worth less than USD 100.0, for teaching analytical chemistry.
